Physically-based rendering is an image synthesis technique based on simulation of physical interactions between light and surface materials. Since generated images are highly photorealistic, physically-based rendering has become an indispensable tool in advanced design visualization for manufacturing and architecture as well as in film VFX and animations. Especially, BRDF (bidirectional reflectance distribution function) is critical in realistic visualization of materials since it models how an incoming light is reflected on the surface in terms of intensity and outgoing angles. In this paper, we introduce techniques to represent BRDF as B-spline volumes and to utilize them in physically-based rendering. We show that B-spline volume BRDF (BVB) representation is suitable for measured BRDFs due to its compact size without quality loss in rendering. Moreover, various CAGD techniques can be applied to B-spline volume BRDFs for further controls such as refinement and blending.

The development of a simulation system requires many sub modules such as a dynamic module, a visualization module, etc. If a different freeware is used for each sub modules, it is hard to develop the simulation system by incorporating them because they use their own data structures. To solve this problem, a high-level data structure, called Dynamics Scene Graph Data structure (DSGD) is proposed, by wrapping data structures of two freeware; an Open Dynamics Engine (ODE) for the dynamic module and an Open Scene Graph (OSG) for the visualization module. Finally, to evaluate the applicability of the proposed data structure, it is applied to the block erection simulation in shipbuilding. The result shows that it can be used for developing the simulation system.

This study concerns flow and heat transfer characteristics of FC-72 condensing flow in a micro-channel. A computational model of condensing flow with a hydraulic diameter of 1 mm is constructed using the FLUENT computational fluid dynamics code. The computed void fraction contour plots are presented for different mass velocities. The smooth-annular, wavy-annular, transition and slug flows are observed with the model, which are quite similar to those observed in a micro-channel experiment. The computed two-phase condensing heat transfer coefficient is compared with previous empirical correlation for two-phase condensation heat transfer in micro-channels.

The earthquake is a natural disaster causing loss of life or property damage and happens more often in Korea recently. Moreover, considering the increase of massive buildings, it is required to predict and visualize the information of the vibration in a building. In this paper, we developed a prototype framework to visualize the displacement information in the AR environments. In order to avoid the irregular halts of the scene and the unnatural distortion of the object, this framework uses the synchronization method at the scene update time and the interpolation of the sensor data for the displacement of vertices. In addition, we studied displacement estimation methods with the acceleration data to extend this framework to the system with accelerators.

This paper proposed an approach to integrate bridge condition assessment related information with a 3D bridge model to visualize bridge condition assessment information in the 3D bridge model. In this approach, bridge information model plays a centric role in the data access and realizes the integration of bridge initial design and historical bridge maintenance records. Behind the bridge information model is a rational database. After the system requirements for this approach, several IFC data model extensions are suggested.

The purpose of this study is to study the fluid-dynamic and structural characteristics of the conventional greenhouse and to find possible improvement on the current greenhouse. The greenhouse is required to have enough rigidity of the structure while the installation and reinforcement should be as easy as possible. In this study, the structural stability to the snow load was tested through the computational structure analysis based on the building structure standard, and the wind load was computed by computational fluid-structure interaction analysis. The current analysis can be used as a reference data for a new greenhouse and it will be economically viable by reducing installation and maintenance costs.

Methylation of cytosine is a post-synthesis modification that does not affect the primary DNA sequence but greatly influences gene expression level and phenotypes of an organism. As high-throughput sequencing of bisulfite-treated DNA is the most efficient method to identify methylated sites, several tools to map sequencing reads on a reference are available. But tools to visualize and to interpret the methylation level of methylation sites are currently insufficient. Herein, we present a novel tool to visualize the methylation level of CpG sites.

This paper briefly introduces the work done up to 1998 during the past twenty years for numerical modeling of ocean process focussing on the neighbouring seas of Korean Peninsula. Modeling of global ocean dynamics has also been performed as a pathway to understand the regional ocean dynamics. The ocean simulation produces a vast amount of multidimensional multivariate dataset therefore adoption of scientific and technical visualization techniques were essential to properly understand the physics involved.
